Founded in 1966, the Rotary Club of Mendocino has been proud to serve Mendocino and the world. We have contributed over $1.3 million to scholarships and community services. Almost every nonprofit organization in the area has benefited from the fundraising efforts of the club.

We welcome new members! Benefits of membership include leadership and networking opportunities, local and global impact, cultural exchange, and lots of fun! Come to one of our weekly meetings or contact us to learn more!

Through our Avenues of Service, we support our local communities through youth scholarships, grants to nonprofits, disaster relief and hands-on projects. Globally, we are rebuilding a school and water system, and helping to eradicate polio.

Rotary Park, at the corner of Main and Lansing Streets in Mendocino, is now protected from commercial development and has become a popular venue for community events. Contact us to find out how to reserve Rotary Park for your event!
